Q

The autopilot can be used with the following minimum values: ILS approach when CAT1 is displayed on the FMA

17
Q

The autopilot can be used with the following minimum values: After a manual go-around

18
Q

The autopilot can be used with the following minimum values: In all other phases

19
Q

The autopilot can be used with the following minimum values: The AP or FD in OP DES or DES mode can be used in approach. However,…

A

… its use is only permitted if the FCU selected altitude is set to, or above, the higher of the two: MDA/MDH or 500 ft AGL.

20
Q

USE OF NAV MODE: RNAV APPROACH

A

An RNAV(RNP) approach may be performed; with GPS PRIMARY not available; only if the radio navaid coverage supports the RNP value and HIGH accuracy is displayed on the MCDU with the specified RNP; and an operational approval is obtained. An RNAV(GNSS) approach may be performed provided that GPS PRIMARY is available.

21
Q

NON-PRECISION APPROACHES WITH ENGINE OUT

A

If one engine is inoperative; it is not permitted to use the autopilot to perform NPAs in the following modes:

FINAL APP; NAV V/S; NAV/FPA.
Only FD use is permitted

22
Q

APU START Limitation

A

After three consecutive APU start attempts; the flight crew must wait 60 min before a new start attempt.

3/60

23
Q

APU START/SHUTDOWN DURING REFUELING/DEFUELING

A

During refuel/defuel procedures; APU starts or shutdown are permitted with the following restrictions:

‐ If the APU failed to start or following an automatic APU shutdown; do not start the APU.
‐ If a fuel spill occurs; perform a normal APU shutdown.

24
Q

Takeoff (1) and Go-around; All engines operative; One engine inoperative

A

All engines operative… 5 min;

One engine inoperative… 10 min;

(1) includes TOGA; FLEX; and DRATE thrust modes.

25
Maximum Continuous Thrust (MCT)
Not limited
26
OIL TEMPERATURE; Minimum starting temperature; Minimum temperature before takeoff
Minimum starting temperature... -40° C; Minimum temperature before takeoff... -10° C
27
OIL QUANTITY; Minimum oil quantity
Minimum oil quanitity... 9.5 qt + estimated consumption; Average estimated consumption = 0.5 qt/h.
28
STARTER Limitations
A standard automatic start that includes up to three start attempts; is considered one cycle; For ground starts (automatic or manual); a 20 s pause is required between successive cycles; A 15 min cooling period is required; subsequent to four failed cycles; The starter must not be run when N2 is above 20 % 3/20/15/4
29
REVERSE THRUST
Selection of the reverse thrust is prohibited in flight. Backing the aircraft with reverse thrust is not permitted. Maximum reverse should not be used below 70 kt. Idle reverse is permitted down to aircraft stop.
30
Maximum operating altitude with slats and/or flaps extended...
20,000 ft
31
MAXIMUM ALLOWED FUEL IMBALANCE: FUEL IMBALANCE AT TAKEOFF
If the quantity difference of the outer or inner wing fuel tanks on one side is greater than 800 lbs refer to the following table located in the FCOM.
32
MAXIMUM ALLOWED FUEL IMBALANCE: FUEL IMBALANCE IN FLIGHT AND AT LANDING
If the quantity difference of the outer or inner wing fuel tanks on one side is greater than 1500 lbs refer to the following table located in the FCOM.
33
MINIMUM FUEL QUANTITY FOR TAKEOFF
Minimum fuel quantity for takeoff... 3,300 lb; The ECAM alerts that are related to fuel low level in the wing tanks (FUEL WING TK LO LVL; etc.) must not appear for takeoff
34
DEFINITION OF ICING CONDITIONS
Icing conditions exist when the OAT (on ground or after takeoff) or the TAT (in flight) is at or below 10° C and visible moisture in any form is present (such as clouds; fog with visibility of 1 SM (1 600 m) or less; rain; snow; sleet or ice crystals). Icing conditions also exist when the OAT on the ground and for takeoff is at or below 10° C and operating on ramps; taxiways or runways where surface snow; standing water or slush may be ingested by the engines; or freeze on engines; nacelles or engine sensor probes.
35
BRAKE TEMPERATURE: Maximum brake temperature for takeoff (brake fans off)
300° C
